Create/Edit Workflow Actions

Workflow actions are reusable templates that define a single unit of work to be completed as part of a flow, such as calling a customer, scheduling an on-site visit, or sending a follow-up. Actions are created once in the Action Library and can be added to as many flows as needed. When a flow is assigned to a ticket and a phase is launched, the actions in that phase are automatically created as tasks on the ticket based on the configuration defined here.

Each field on the Create/Edit Action form is defined below.
